Ryder . 28 Weeks

28 weeks; 20 pounds.

. 

Ryder is doing better at eating solid food, although he doesn't always enjoy it.  This weekend we spent a lot of time cooking/baking/boiling/steaming and pureeing vegetables and fruit.  We froze Tablespoon size portions (in ice cube trays), and have them in gallon size Ziplocs for easy use!  Currently, his food selection consists of asparagus, avocado, broccoli, butternut squash, cauliflower, carrots, cucumbers, green beans, peas, sweet potato, tomato, apples, blueberries, citrus (clementines/oranges), nectarines, plums, raspberries, and strawberries.

Ryder concentrates hard on trying to get toys that are out of his reach . . . no real signs of crawling, although he can roll and pivot himself quite nicely!

Many of the pictures of I have of Ryder are like this - he is pretty sure his hands are supposed to be in his mouth at all times.

Another hand in mouth shot, but this time wearing a cute new shirt.

Patrick's hair (when "done" for the day) is a bit "pokey", and Ryder thinks it is the funniest thing ever.

Playing the saxophone on his toy.

Patrick was holding Ryder, as I tried to get him to smile at me, instead, this is the look he gave Patrick . . . I am pretty sure he thought I already have enough pictures. 

This weekend we made it to 2 Sundance movies - both pretty good, but we really enjoyed "Get Low", and filled the rest of the time making baby food!
